Chapter514 Lester's Conjecture (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
[Autophagy] is a non-directional mutation method rarely used by slaughterers, by self-devouring a certain part of the [flesh purification], this way of abandoning useless organs and flesh has a great risk, the unlucky slaughterer will be self-mutated flesh and blood instantly burst, and the lucky one will get a more refined body and gain more powerful strength.
Seeing that the big man had begun to behave in a way that he had never done before, Lyist naturally did not give the enemy time to play, and directly stepped forward with his sword to attack the slaughterer's sagging belly and short and thick legs.
Like chopping bones covered with rotten flesh with a chopping knife, Lyist scraped the slaughterer's legs into a skeleton, unable to support his massive body any longer, and the slaughterer fell to the ground with only the large mouth on his stomach still expanding open and closed, trying to devour the rest of his body.
Turce and Edgar, who had burned down the warehouse, also rushed over, and attacked the unspeakable filth with their holy stone weapons.
"It's a bit boring to be killed by you like this. (Lachen)"
Bennett, who was in a state of spectator of the battle, threw out the glass ball made of soul sand and human souls in the underworld city [Mitner Lachen] in the direction of the slaughterer, and at the moment when the glass ball hit the ground, the power of the imprisoned soul in the glass ball spread out reluctantly, forming an indestructible soul enchantment.
The Soul Barrier shielded Lyster and Turce from their attacks, and an invisible gray mist cut them off, giving the Slayer plenty of time to mutate.
Turce shot out a few holy rays with **, and the holy light shot on the gray mist like mud flowing into the sea without any reaction.
"It's the Assassin."
Lyist looked vigilantly at the direction where the glass ball was flying, the top of the warehouse had been swallowed by a sea of fire at the moment, there was nothing on it, as long as the other party did not expose himself, it was difficult to find the assassin's whereabouts with the naked eye alone.
Lyist gestured with his eyes that the wall had ears, and Tours comprehended that a soundproof circle was propped up, whether it could work or not, at least better than doing nothing.
"This is a bit like the kind of [Soul Enchantment] mentioned in the ancient classics, unless you use enough strength to break this enchantment at one time, you can only let the power of the enchantment itself slowly run out before it can be broken."
Frowning and attacking Aatrox twice, Lyist realized that what Turce said was reasonable, and sat down on the spot to regain his strength.
"Why didn't that guy who was hiding attack us?"
"Maybe I didn't find the right opportunity."
Faced with Edgar's doubts, Tours gave his own guess.
"This kind of intelligent creature is very rare in Shadow Island, maybe he noticed our threat and refused to act, after all, intelligent beings are generally more afraid of death......"
"Lord Tours, how much do you know about the underworld?"
Lyist interrupted Tours.
"The underworld? To be honest, I don't know much about it. ”
Frowning, Tours thought for a moment and said slowly.
"For the understanding of the underworld, when Fuguang Island was still flourishing, there were elders who communicated with the present messenger of death through some spiritual revelations, but it is a pity that the books that recorded the knowledge of the underworld were sealed under the huge library, since the curse of ruin changed Fuguang Island, the Sect of Light lost control of Fuguang Island, and had to shrink up to look for opportunities for revival."
"Then do you know the skull of the Uzur tyrant who was sealed in Fuguang Island?"
His face changed, and he thought of a possibility, and Turce vigilantly raised his ** to point at Lyster and spoke.
"How do you know that the tyrant's skull is on Fukuko Island? Are you the one with the Black Rose? ”
Spreading his hands to show that he had no ill intentions, Lyist whispered.
"I still know a lot of things, and as for how I know, I naturally have my own way, and everyone has a secret, doesn't it?
Lord Tours, you just need to know that I and your Cult of Light are not enemies, on the contrary, we have a common enemy. ”
After a deep look at Lyster, Turce put away his weapon again.
"I believe you, if you were from over there, you wouldn't be here to fight these monsters."
"Thank you for your understanding."
It was only when the tension had eased a little that Turce spoke.
"Actually, I also heard from my ancestors that after the Lockhee tribe and the Black Rose betrayed the reborn tyrant, the Pale Witch, the person in charge behind the Black Rose, severed the connection between the soul well and the tyrant's plate armor, so that the tyrant lost his immortal power and banished the tyrant back to the underworld.
After that, the Black Rose who controlled the Immortal Fortress dug up the head of the tyrant from the tomb of the tyrant of the Immortal Fortress, and after magic detection, the mage of the Black Rose confirmed that the head would become the key to the resurrection of the tyrant, at that time Fuguang Island was still the safest holy place in the world, and the Pale Witch signed a caretaker agreement with the masters of Hailia of Fuguang Island, and sent the tyrant's head to Fuguang Island,
Later, the master of Fuguang Island deliberately built a secret magic prison located underground for the tyrant's head, and applied multiple seals, preparing to seal the tyrant's skull forever, so as not to resurrect the tyrant again and endanger the world.
Everything was perfect, until the female general of Kamavia crossed the ocean to the island, took away the key that could open the sacred fog tent of Fuguang Island, and brought with him the brutal army of Kamavia, everything changed, and the king of Kamavia polluted the fountain of life, caused the curse of ruin, and created an unprecedented disaster.
After that, our Sect of Light can only retreat underground, guarding an underground mine that can produce holy stones, and do our best to continue the inheritance, so as not to completely lose the method of fighting the black fog and cursed evil.
As for whether the tyrant's skull is still in the Sealed Land, we don't know if it's still in the Sealed Land, because the location of the Sealed Land is not far from the Ancient Tomb where the Fountain of Life is located, which is the place with the most filth, and no living person can go there. ”
"I see, that is, the black fog from the Shadow Isle may also be affected by the tyrant, which makes sense."
Groping his chin, List's words made Tours a little confused, as for Edgar, he was already at a loss for what to do, these ancient secrets hidden in the long river of history he had no chance to contact as an ordinary hunter, at this moment he could only try his best to memorize all the information in his mind, waiting for the opportunity to understand one by one in the future.
"What do you mean, Your Excellency?"
"That assassin may be a tyrant's subordinate, and only a warlord like the tyrant can train such a terrible assassin, and only he can easily establish a slaughterhouse like a flesh refining workshop."
In Lyster's voice, Turs's face changed dramatically.
"Do you mean that the ghosts in the Isle of Shadows are likely to be influenced by tyrants to encroach on the material realm?"
"I can't rule out the possibility, if that's the case, I'm afraid the tyrant's head has broken free from the seal......"
Edgar, who was behind the two, kept his mouth shut, although he didn't know who the 'tyrant' was, he could also see how terrible the tyrant was from the solemn attitude of Lyster and Tours.
Glancing at the grey mist of the soul that was beginning to shrink, Lyist spoke to Tours.
"The gray fog is starting to dissipate, anyway, let's expel these evil spirits first, and then discuss how to deal with the threat on the Shadow Isle."
Under the gaze of the three of them, the gray mist completely dissipated, and the original big man was gone, and after the excess flesh and blood were removed, the slaughterer turned into a triangular flat-headed crawling creature only two meters tall.
The gray-green monster crouched on the ground and made a sharp sound, its limbs were full of muscles, it had palms like suckers, its knuckles with bone spurs were full of explosive power, its back was open like a mouth, and its thick bony tail swayed flexibly like a blade under the traction of flesh and blood, and the tip of the tail could easily pierce through the steel armor.
Judging from the physiognomy, the monster in front of him doesn't seem to be easy to deal with.
"It's targeting me, you stand back and guard against the assassin."
Hearing Lyist's voice, the two thin slits that were originally closed on the triangular flat head suddenly opened, revealing burning dark green eyes, and in an instant, the mutated slaughterer locked on Lyster's position.
"Hiss!
! ”
With a low roar, the butcher's limbs gripped the ground and swung his body, the long bony tail suddenly elongated, and the tip of the three-edged spear turned into an afterimage in the flickering, stabbing at Lyist's chest.
The monster's attack speed was even faster than Lister had imagined, and Rest could only stand upright in front of Aatrox in front of him, bursting with a sonic boom, and the tip of its tail was drawn against Aatrox's sword to bring a huge force, and Lyist flew upside down and fell to the ground.
The slaughterer who was in pursuit of the victory was about to jump towards Ryster and tear the enemy with his claws, but several holy light attacks flew from the rear and hit the back perfectly, the holy energy eroded the flesh and blood composed of the dark energy, and the back of the slaughterer emitted a corrosive sound of 'zizi'.
"Walking on the Stars"
His eyes swept over the two humans who sneaked up on him, and the strained slaughterer turned his body and pounced directly on Turce, who was closest to him, Turce's face changed, and he raised his ** to launch a continuous holy light attack on the slaughterer while retreating, but unfortunately most of the holy light was blocked by the bone long tail that was immune to the holy stone attribute, and it did not play an obstructive role.
The distance between the two was instantly shortened by the slaughterer, the bone spurs on the knuckles stretched out, and the slaughterer jumped directly into the air above Turce and pressed straight down, and the bone spurs on the palm of his hand were aimed at Tours' head and heart.
Seeing that Turce was about to die under the bone claws, Kitty in Edgar's hand burst out with dazzling light, and a pillar of light much thicker than ordinary holy light erupted from Kitty's muzzle, perfectly predicting the location of the slaughterer's fall, and the slaughterer, who felt the deadly threat, could only sweep the ground with his tail, forcibly deflect his body to avoid the attack of the holy light, and landed not far in front of Turs.
"Well done!"
Turles, who praised Edgar, was a little anxious, the Slayer seemed to have figured out how to anticipate his attacks, and his agile body was always able to pass with the Holy Light, which also meant that the enemy had free up to block the attack to the bone tail.
In fact, just as Turles imagined, the mouth of the slaughterer's back opened and closed, and the tail began to vibrate violently.
The agile body quickly approached Tours in an irregular movement form, making Tours simply unable to parry the upcoming long-tail attack, and Edgar was anxious to use Kitty to attack the Slayer again, but his weak body made him realize that he couldn't do this at all.
"Your opponent is me!"
The blade-like tail slashed across Tours's neck, but the next moment it was stopped by Lyster who was holding Aatrox, and the tail was directly cut off by Aatrox in a piercing friction sound, and the broken tail spun and cut off the trees along the way, and smashed into a private house, and Lyster, who was internally injured under the violent impact, also fell to the ground, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.
The slaughterer with the severed tail was instantly furious, and rushed towards Lyster with a bone spur regardless of it, but saw that Lyster took all the attacks with Aatrox like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, and when Lyster counterattacked, the slaughterer took the initiative to retreat, and the scene was actually stalemate for a while, whether it was Lyster or the slaughterer, they could not completely gain the advantage of fighting.
"We need to trap this monster to be completely destroyed, Lord Lyist, please buy some more time! Edgar! After I trap the monster, can you attack again like that! ”
Confirming his status, Edgar nodded vigorously and held Kitty tightly.
With everything ready, Turce pulled out a palm-sized white stone disc with an inscription on it with a secret method of activating the method written in the Heliya language, which was the confidence that he dared to take the newcomer Edgar deep into the black fog.
"/ The light of the revival of life rises from the east /
/ The darkness recedes, and courage cleanses the evil/
/ The treasure house under the stars shines the soul /
/ Helia's legacy is eternal /
……”
The ancient hymn of light returns to the world in the form of Halia, the song echoes over the village of Nascott, the white disc gradually brightens, bursting into a dazzling halo of colorful light, and the thick black fog is dispelled by the white light, temporarily restoring the land to its original appearance.
The body of the slaughterer who was illuminated by the white light was fixed in place, and even Ryster found that his body illuminated by the white light had lost control, but fortunately, the white light did not cause any harm to him except for his imprisonment.
"Edgar! Now is the time! ”
"Ahhh
! ”
Roaring to vent the fear and cowardice in his heart, Edgar, who was already ready to attack, poured all his strength into the holy spear Kitty, and a pillar of light, which was thicker and more dazzling than before, erupted from the muzzle, and the beam pierced through the slaughterer, and the monster screamed unwillingly in the dazzling light.
By the time the light vanished into the distance, the slaughterer had been reduced to ashes and died completely.
The holiness of the disc gradually fell silent, and Turce tiredly put the disc away and sat on the ground, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Is this the end of it?"
Edgar also collapsed on the ground, although he only made up for the final blow in the whole stroke, but being able to kill such a powerful monster with his own hands also gave the young hunter a little more confidence.
"No, there's something else here, they just didn't come out."
It was only after Tours put away the disc that Lyist regained control of his body, and to be honest, he hated the feeling of losing control because it reminded him of some not-so-good memories.
"Anyway, the pioneer disperses the black fog, I have just used the Light Disk to determine the source of the black fog, and it is over there."
Looking in the direction of Tours' finger, Edgar frowned.
"It seems to be the location of the temple, you say, is the hidden assassin in the temple?"
……
Just as the three Lyster began to approach the temple after a short break, Bennett had already returned to the temple's library, and Austin was still immersed in reading.
Sitting on his desk, Bennett said.
"If this operation fails, aren't you scared at all?"
"Afraid of what?"
Closing the book unhurriedly, Austin placed the book he was about to take with him into the magic package.
"If it was an enemy that even you couldn't handle, you would definitely come to me, but you don't look like a battle right now, so you didn't make a move at all, and let the slaughterer be killed by those who invaded, there is only one possibility."
Austin stood up, strapped his heavy package, and stared intently at Bennett.
"Among the invaders, there are people from the Sect of Light, right?"
Glancing deeply at Austin, Bennett nodded and asked straight to the point.
"Austin, I remember that you were a wizard of the Black Rose when you were alive, and at that time the Black Rose was still connected with the Sect of Light, how much do you know about the Sect of Light?"
"Sect of Light, ......"
Sighing with emotion, Austin nodded his skull.
"Most of my memories have been lost since I was reborn in the underworld, but there is one thing I remember clearly."
"What do you remember?"
Bennett stared at the Dark Wizard, who whispered.
"The Sect of Light is actually ...... Not very bright......"
"Do you who like to read always like to say such things that are not clear and pretending to be profound?"
"Take it as it is."
Seeing that Austin didn't want to say more, Bennett didn't bother to ask, and watched Austin put away a dark jade-colored skull-shaped underworld magic weapon placed on the eucalyptus table, the [Stygian Mist Beacon] beacon was already loaded with thousands of souls, enough for them to deal with in front of Maude Caesar.
In silence, the two of them came to the open window, turning into two black-green streamers and disappearing into the black mist.
At the same time, the heavy door of the temple was pushed open, and Turce, holding the Disc of Light, walked in with Lyster and Edgar.
"It's not ruined by those monsters...... That's the source of the black fog over there, Edgar, what's that over there? ”
Although we Ishtars do not believe in the god of death, the god of death is part of the long culture of Ishtar, and on the day of the memorial service, there will be people who come to the temple to worship the god of death and remember the soul of the deceased in the sky."
"Be careful, there may be a battle in a while, Your Excellency Lyster, I would like you to take the lead."
